Year 3 2023 - 2024

Miss Breen

Spring Term 2023-24

Happy New Year! What a fantastic first term we have had together in Year 3! Well done for all of your hard work! This term we have lots of exciting learning opportunities planned, including a trip to Chester Museum for the Roman Experience. 

In English, this term we will be using Escape from Pompeii by Christina Balit as a foundation for our narrative writing. It is a story about the eruption of Mount Vesuvius over Pompeii and links really well with our topic of the Roman Empire.

In Maths, we will be blending learning from last year, to ensure that each of you accesses learning at the appropriate level of challenge for you. We will be focusing on multiplication and division, money, length and perimeter and fractions, including problem-solving and investigative maths.

In Religious Education, our new topic will explore Reconciliation and Sin. Then, after half-term we will move onto a new topic of Easter and Pentecost. Furthermore, this term we will also begin our preparation for the Sacrament of First Holy Communion. 

In Science, our topics will be focusing on magnets and forces and movement and feeding.

In our Topic lessons, we will be exploring the Roman Empire and have a really exciting trip planned to the Chester Museum.

We also have lots more exciting learning planned in PE, Spanish, Forest School, Music, Art, Technology and Computing. 

Our PE days this term are Tuesday and Wednesday,  so please come to school dressed in your PE kit on these days.

All homework, including spellings, will be set on a Friday. 

Homework and spellings will be accessible via Google Classroom.

You are always welcome to chat with myself after school, or to make an appointment.  Thank you once more for your ongoing support.  Together everyone achieves more, so it is much appreciated.
